Alert Logic Appoints Vice President of Marketing
New VP Completes Management Team and Bolsters Service Provider and Security DNA
Alert Logic appointed industry veteran Urvish Vashi as its vice president of marketing. In this role, Vashi is responsible for marketing strategy and execution along with product management.
Vashi joins Alert Logic with 15 years of experience in IT and managed hosting services. Previously, Vashi held leadership roles in both product management and marketing at ThePlanet.com Internet Services and Navisite (formerly Interliant), both IT service providers. Further, Vashi was responsible for product management at Symantec and NetIQ in their security and compliance product groups.
“An increasing amount of IT infrastructure is purchased from or through an IT service provider,” said Vashi. “Alert Logic is poised to capitalize on this trend through a combination of products, a focus on service providers and a management team whose background is deeply rooted in the managed security services market.”
The addition of Vashi comes on the heels of appointments of service provider industry veterans Greg Davis, Vice President of Sales, and Marty McGuffin, Vice President of Operations.
"Urvish brings deep product management and marketing expertise from the two industry sectors most relevant to our strategy - security software and managed hosting," said Gray Hall, CEO of Alert Logic. "I welcome his perspective and experience as we continue our rapid growth and further solidifies our unique position in the market."
